Lets See who is from NY/NJ/PA/MA/CT
Hi everyone this is Eve.

I am from Long Island, NY.

Lets see where everyone is from and maybe we can decide to do a local get together.

It might be very hard for alot of people to travel across the country.

Lets give it a roll.

Eve

Hi --

Although I'm not all that close to NY, I have relatives there who would LOVE for me to visit! So, if y'all decide to do something, please count me in! My relatives are in Queens and Manhatten. I also have a really good friend in Albany and another in the Bronx (Riverside). I'm about 5 hours away from NYC, but could do the drive in a day or could go to my Mom's house for a night, which is half way between NYC and where I am in NH.

Hi Eve and everyone,

I live in Orange County New York which is 70 miles north of the city. I would love to get together. I am hearing GAFE is canceled this year (that stinks) so if we could all do something else that would be great.

Christine

Hi,
I grew up in Northern NJ and my parents still live there. I would love to meet some other adoptive families! I go home about once a year.
